FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements contained herein, as well as in other filings we make with the SEC and other written and oral information we release, including statements regarding our performance, estimates, expectations, beliefs, intentions, projections, strategies for the future, or other events or developments in the future constitute “forward-looking statements” under the federal securities laws, including as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on currently available information and our current assumptions, expectations and projections about future events, and use words such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “project,” “plan,” “believe,” “expect,” “target,” "prospects,” “potential,” "commit” and "forecast,” or words of similar import or meaning or refer to future time periods.

Forward-looking statements may relate to, among other things, the demand for our products and services, including as a result of macroeconomic conditions and changing customer preferences and expectations; net sales growth; comparable sales; the effects of competition; our brand and reputation; implementation of interconnected retail, store, supply chain technology, innovation and other strategic initiatives, including with respect to real estate; inventory and in-stock positions; the state of the economy; the state of the housing and home improvement markets; the state of the credit markets, including mortgages, home equity loans, and consumer credit; the impact of tariffs, trade policy changes or restrictions, or international trade disputes and efforts and ability to continue to diversify our supply chain; issues related to the payment methods we accept; demand for credit offerings, including trade credit; management of relationships with our associates, jobseekers, suppliers and service providers; cost and availability of labor; costs of fuel and other energy sources; events that could disrupt our business, supply chain, technology infrastructure, or demand for our products and services, such as tariffs, trade policy changes or restrictions or international trade disputes, natural disasters, climate change, public health issues, cybersecurity events, labor disputes, geopolitical conflicts, military conflicts or acts of war; our ability to maintain a safe and secure store environment; our ability to address expectations regarding sustainability and human capital management matters and meet related goals; continuation or suspension of share repurchases; net earnings performance; earnings per share; future dividends; capital allocation and expenditures; liquidity; return on invested capital; expense leverage; changes in interest rates; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; commodity or other price inflation and deflation; our ability to issue debt on terms and at rates acceptable to us; the impact and expected outcome of investigations, inquiries, claims, and litigation, including compliance with related settlements; the challenges of operating in international markets; the adequacy of insurance coverage; the effect of accounting charges; the effect of adopting certain accounting standards; the impact of legal and regulatory changes, including executive orders and other administrative or legislative actions, such as changes to tax laws and regulations; store openings and closures; financial outlook; the status of the pending GMS acquisition; and the impact of acquired companies, including SRS, on our organization and the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of any completed or pending acquisitions.

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to future events, risks and uncertainties — many of which are beyond our control, dependent on the actions of third parties, or currently unknown to us — as well as potentially inaccurate assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our expectations and projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described elsewhere in this report and in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of the 2024 Form 10-K and elsewhere in the 2024 Form 10-K, and also as described from time to time in reports subsequently filed with the SEC. You should read such information in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes and Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this report. There also may be other factors that we cannot anticipate or that are not described herein, generally because we do not currently perceive them to be material. Such factors could cause results to differ materially from our expectations. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we do not undertake to update these statements other than as required by law. You are advised, however, to review any further disclosures we make on related subjects in our filings with the SEC and in our other public statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Home Depot, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (the “Company,” “The Home Depot,” “Home Depot,” “we,” “our” or “us”), have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. As a result, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2024 Form 10-K. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~May~~August 43, 2025, there were no significant changes to our significant accounting policies as disclosed in the 2024 Form 10-K.

Reclassifications

Effective July 28, 2024, we began separately presenting intangible asset amortization on the statements of cash flows, which was previously included in the depreciation and amortization line item. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s financial statement presentation.

Receivables, net

The following table presents components of receivables, net:

in millions	~~May~~August 43,2025		February 2,2025
Card receivables	$	1,~~647~~287	$	1,019
Rebate receivables	1,~~315~~485		1,404
Customer receivables	2,~~349~~521		1,896
Other receivables	~~575~~585		584
Receivables, net	$	5,~~886~~878	$	4,903

Card receivables consist of payments due from financial institutions for the settlement of credit card and debit card transactions. Rebate receivables represent amounts due from vendors for volume and co-op advertising rebates. Customer receivables relate to credit extended directly to certain customers in the ordinary course of business. The valuation allowance related to our receivables was not material to our consolidated financial statements at ~~May~~August 43, 2025 or February 2, 2025.

Supplier Finance Program

We have a supplier finance program whereby participating suppliers may, at their sole discretion, elect to receive payment for one or more of our payment obligations, prior to their scheduled due dates, at a discounted price from participating financial institutions. The payment terms we negotiate with our suppliers are consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the program, and we are not a party to the agreements between the participating financial institutions and the suppliers in connection with the program. We do not reimburse suppliers for any costs they incur for participation in the program, and we have not pledged any assets as security or provided any guarantees as part of the program. Our outstanding payment obligations under our supplier finance program were $~~425~~598 million at ~~May~~both August 43, 2025 and ~~$598 million at~~ February 2, 2025 and are recorded within accounts payable on our consolidated balance sheets, and the associated payments are included in operating activities within the consolidated statements of cash flows.

We did not adopt any new accounting pronouncements during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~May~~August 43, 2025 that had a material impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. There have been no significant changes in accounting pronouncements not yet adopted as disclosed in the 2024 Form 10-K, and those not discussed in the 2024 Form 10-K are either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

2.SEGMENT REPORTING AND NET SALES

Segment Reporting

The Company defines its segments based on how internally reported financial information is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), our President and Chief Executive Officer, to analyze financial performance, make decisions, and allocate resources.

Primary Segment. We are engaged in ~~the operation of~~ retail ~~stores~~operations and sell a wide assortment of building materials, home improvement products, lawn and garden products, décor products, and facilities maintenance, repair and operations products both in stores and online. We also provide a number of services, including home improvement installation services, and tool and equipment rental. We currently conduct these operations in the U.S. (including the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the territories of the U.S. Virgin Islands and Guam), Canada, and Mexico, each of which represents an operating segment. For disclosure purposes, we aggregate these three geographic operating segments into one reportable segment (the “Primary segment”) due to the similar nature of their operations and economic characteristics.

Other. As discussed in Note 10, in June 2024, we acquired SRS, a leading residential specialty trade distribution company across several verticals serving the professional roofer, landscaper and pool contractor through its branches located throughout the U.S. SRS is organized as three different lines of business: roofing and complementary building products, landscape, and pool. We have determined that each of these three lines of business represents an operating segment, none of which meets the thresholds prescribed under Topic 280 to be deemed a reportable segment. Therefore, results from our SRS operating segments are presented in “Other” beginning from the acquisition date of June 18, 2024.

Net sales presented in Other in the tables below relate to the sale of products by SRS, with roofing and related products accounting for approximately 62% and 63% of net sales in Other during the three and six months ended August 3, 2025, respectively, and approximately 65% during both the three and six months ended July 28, 2024.

Segment Information. Assets are reviewed by our CODM on a total company consolidated basis and not by segment. The accounting policies of our Primary segment are the same as those described in our summary of significant accounting policies.

The following table presents net sales, significant expenses, and operating income for our Primary segment:

Deferred Revenue

For products and services sold in stores or online, payment is typically due at the point of sale. When we receive payment before the customer has taken possession of the merchandise or the service has been performed, the amount received is recorded as deferred revenue until the sale or service is complete. Such performance obligations are part of contracts with expected original durations of typically three months or less. As of ~~May~~August 43, 2025 and February 2, 2025, deferred revenue for products and services was $1.86 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively.

We further record deferred revenue for the sale of gift cards and recognize the associated revenue upon the redemption of those gift cards, which generally occurs within six months of gift card issuance. As of ~~May~~August 43, 2025 and February 2, 2025, our performance obligations for unredeemed gift cards were $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively. Gift card breakage income, which is our estimate of the portion of our outstanding gift card balance not expected to be redeemed, is recognized in net sales and was immaterial during the three and six months ended ~~May~~August 43, 2025 and ~~April~~July 28, 2024.

5.DEBT AND DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Short-Term Debt

WeAt ~~have~~the beginning of fiscal 2025, we had a commercial paper program that ~~allows~~allowed for ~~borrowings~~an upaggregate toof $7.0 billion in borrowings, and iswas supported by $7.0 billion of back-up credit facilities. AtThese ~~the beginning of fiscal 2025, these~~ backup credit facilities consisted of a five-year $3.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in July 2027, a 364-day $2.0 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in May 2025, and a 364-day $1.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in July 2025. On May 6, 2025, we terminated all three back-up credit facility agreements and simultaneously entered into a new five-year $3.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in May 2030 and a new 364-day $3.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in May 2026.

~~All~~In ~~of our short-term borrowings during the first three months of fiscal 2025 were under our commercial paper program, and the maximum amount outstanding at any time was $1.1 billion. At~~ May 4, 2025, we ~~had~~terminated ~~$38~~all ~~million~~three ofback-up ~~outstanding~~credit ~~borrowings~~facility ~~under~~agreements ~~our~~and ~~commercial~~simultaneously ~~paper~~entered ~~program~~into ~~with~~ a ~~weighted~~new ~~average interest rate of 2.9% and no outstanding borrowings under our back~~five-upyear ~~credit facilities~~$3. ~~At February~~5 2,billion ~~2025,~~credit wefacility ~~had~~scheduled ~~$316~~to ~~million~~expire ofin ~~outstanding~~May ~~borrowings~~2030 ~~under~~and ~~our commercial paper program with~~ a ~~weighted~~new 364-~~average~~day ~~interest rate of 4~~$3.4%5 billion ~~and~~credit nofacility ~~outstanding~~scheduled ~~borrowings~~to ~~under~~expire ~~our~~in ~~back-up~~May ~~credit facilities~~2026.

In July 2025, we increased our commercial paper program by $4.0 billion in connection with the anticipated financing of the acquisition of GMS (see Note 10). In July 2025, in connection with the increase in the commercial paper program, we also entered into a new three-year $3.0 billion back-up credit facility scheduled to expire in July 2028, a new 364-day $1.0 billion back-up credit facility scheduled to expire in July 2026, and amended and restated our existing 364-day $3.5 billion credit facility to extend the maturity from May 2026 to July 2026. In the aggregate, as of August 3, 2025, our commercial paper program allows for borrowings up to $11.0 billion and is supported by $11.0 billion of back-up credit facilities.

During the first six months of fiscal 2025, all of our short term borrowings were under our commercial paper program, and the maximum amount outstanding during that period was $1.1 billion. At August 3, 2025, we had no outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper program or back-up credit facilities. At February 2, 2025, we had $316 million of outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper program with a weighted-average interest rate of 4.4% and no outstanding borrowings under our back-up credit facilities.

Long-Term Debt

We did not have any new issuances of senior notes during the first ~~three~~six months of fiscal 2025. In April 2025, we repaid our $500 million 2.70% and $500 million 5.125% senior notes at maturity.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We use derivative instruments as part of our normal business operations in the management of our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates on certain debt. Our objective in managing these exposures is to decrease the volatility of cash flows affected by changes in the underlying rates and to minimize the risk of changes in the fair value of certain senior notes.

We had outstanding interest rate swap agreements with combined notional amounts of $5.4 billion at both ~~May~~August 43, 2025 and February 2, 2025. These agreements are accounted for as fair value hedges that swap fixed for variable rate interest to hedge changes in the fair values of certain senior notes. At ~~May~~August 43, 2025 and February 2, 2025, the fair values of these agreements totaled $~~661~~599 million and $795 million, respectively, all of which are recognized in other long-term liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. All of our interest rate swap agreements designated as fair value hedges meet the shortcut method requirements under GAAP. Accordingly, the changes in the fair values of these agreements offset the changes in the fair value of the hedged long-term debt. At ~~May~~August 43, 2025 and February 2, 2025, the carrying amount of our long-term debt, excluding current installments, subject to fair value hedges was $14.5 billion and $14.3 billion, respectively.

During the three and six months ended ~~May~~August 43, 2025, there was no new material hedging activity or material change to any other hedging arrangement disclosed in our 2024 Form 10-K, and all related activity was immaterial for the periods presented within this report.

Collateral. We generally enter into master netting arrangements, which are designed to reduce credit risk by permitting net settlement of transactions with the same counterparty. To further limit our credit risk, we enter into collateral security arrangements that provide for collateral to be received or posted when the net fair value of certain derivative instruments exceeds or falls below contractually established thresholds. The cash collateral posted by the Company related to derivative instruments under our collateral security arrangements was $~~532~~530 million and $668 million as of ~~May~~August 43, 2025 and February 2, 2025, respectively, which was recorded in other current assets on our consolidated balance sheets. We did not hold any cash collateral as of ~~May~~August 43, 2025 or February 2, 2025.

Share Repurchases

In August 2023, our Board of Directors approved a $15.0 billion share repurchase authorization that replaced the previous authorization of $15.0 billion, which was approved in August 2022. The August 2023 authorization does not have a prescribed expiration date. As of ~~May~~August 43, 2025, approximately $11.7 billion of the $15.0 billion share repurchase authorization remained available. In March 2024, we paused share repurchases and have not resumed share repurchase activity as of ~~May~~August 43, 2025.

7.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of an asset is considered to be the price at which the asset could be sold in an orderly transaction between unrelated knowledgeable and willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, rather than the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured using a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

•Level 1: observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices in active markets in Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

•Level 3: unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring management judgment to develop the Company’s own models with estimates and assumptions.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following table presents the assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	May 4, 2025		February 2, 2025
	August 3, 2025		February 2, 2025

Derivative agreements – assets	$	—	$	—
Derivative agreements – liabilities	(~~661~~601)		(795)
Total	$	(~~661~~601)	$	(795)

The fair values of our derivative instruments are determined using an income approach and Level 2 inputs, which primarily include the respective interest rate forward curves and discount rates. Our derivative instruments are discussed further in Note 5.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Long-lived assets, goodwill, and other intangible assets are subject to nonrecurring fair value measurement for the assessment of impairment. We did not have any material assets or liabilities that were measured and recognized at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the three and six months ended ~~May~~August 43, 2025 or ~~April~~July 28, 2024.

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and short-term debt approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

10.ACQUISITIONS

SRS Acquisition

On June 18, 2024, we completed the acquisition of SRS, a leading residential specialty trade distribution company across several verticals serving the professional roofer, landscaper and pool contractor, for total purchase consideration of $18.0 billion. We primarily used a combination of proceeds from commercial paper borrowings, the issuance of long-term debt, as well as cash on hand to fund the acquisition. In fiscal 2024, we recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated acquisition date fair values. ~~Adjustments~~Measurement toperiod ~~this~~adjustments ~~preliminary purchase price allocation~~ recognized ~~during~~in ~~the first quarter of~~ fiscal 2025 were immaterial, and we finalized our purchase price allocation isduring ~~now~~the ~~finalized~~first quarter of fiscal 2025.

~~Fiscal~~Pending Q1GMS ~~2025 Form 10-Q 13~~Acquisition

On June 29, 2025, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire GMS, a leading distributor of specialty building products including drywall, ceilings, steel framing and other complementary products related to construction and remodeling projects in residential and commercial end markets across the U.S. and Canada. Under the terms of the merger agreement, we, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, made a cash tender offer to purchase all outstanding shares of GMS common stock for $110 per share, reflecting an expected total equity value of approximately $4.3 billion, and implying an expected total enterprise value (including net debt) of approximately $5.5 billion. The closing of the acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals and the tender of a number of shares of GMS common stock representing a majority of the then-outstanding shares, and is expected to be completed in the second half of fiscal 2025. The acquisition is expected to be funded through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under our commercial paper program.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion provides an analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations from management’s perspective and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this report and in the 2024 Form 10-K and with our MD&A included in the 2024 Form 10-K.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

We reported net sales of $3945.93 billion in the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025. Net earnings were $34.6 billion, or $4.58 per diluted share. For the first six months of fiscal 2025, net sales were $85.1 billion and net earnings were $8.0 billion, or $38.4503 per diluted share.

WeDuring the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we opened three new stores in the U.S. ~~during the first quarter of fiscal 2025~~, resulting in a total store count of 2,~~350~~353 at ~~May~~August 43, 2025. A total of 322 stores, or 13.7%, were located in Canada and Mexico. Our inventory turnover ratio was 4.36 times at the end of the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to 4.59 times at the end of the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease in our inventory turnover ratio was primarily driven by higher average inventory levels during the first six months of fiscal 2025.

We generated $49.30 billion of cash flow from operations during the first ~~three~~six months of fiscal 2025. This cash flow, together with cash on hand, was used to fund cash payments of $24.36 billion for dividends, ~~repay~~and fund $1.7 billion in capital expenditures. In addition, we repaid $1.2 billion of long-term debt, and ~~repay~~repaid $~~278~~316 million of net commercial paper borrowings. In ~~addition, we funded $806 million in capital expenditures. In~~ February 2025, we announced a 2.2% increase in our quarterly cash dividend to $2.30 per share.

Our ROIC for the trailing twelve-month period was 3127.32% at the end of the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 and 3731.19% at the end of the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease in ROIC was primarily driven by higher average long-term debt and higher average equity due to the financing of the SRS acquisition ~~in the second quarter of fiscal 2024~~. See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below for our definition and calculation of ROIC.

(2)Average ticket represents the average price paid per transaction and is used by management to monitor the performance of the Company, as it represents a primary driver in measuring sales performance.

Sales

We assess our sales performance by evaluating both net sales and comparable sales. In fiscal 2025, there is a one-week calendar shift as a result of the 53rd week in fiscal 2024. For purposes of the following discussion, comparable sales, comparable customer transactions, and comparable average ticket are based upon the comparable 13-week period from fiscal 2024.

Net Sales. Net sales for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 were $3945.93 billion, an increase of 9.4.9% from $3643.42 billion for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase in net sales for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 was primarily driven by SRS, which was acquired inon ~~the~~June ~~second~~18, ~~quarter of fiscal~~ 2024, and contributed $21.68 billion of incremental net sales during the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025. ~~Additionally,~~Net sales also increased due to the ~~53rd~~impact ~~week~~of ina ~~fiscal~~positive ~~2024,~~comparable ~~the~~sales ~~first~~environment ~~quarter~~and ofsales ~~fiscal~~from ~~2025~~new ~~included~~stores, ~~one~~partially ~~less~~offset ~~week~~by ofthe ~~winter~~calendar ~~and~~shift ~~one~~which ~~additional~~resulted ~~week~~in ofthe ~~spring,~~second ~~which~~quarter ~~further~~of ~~contributed~~fiscal to2025 ~~the~~including ~~increase~~one inless ~~net~~week ~~sales~~of inspring ~~the~~and ~~first~~one ~~quarter~~additional week of ~~fiscal 2025~~summer.

Table of Contents

Online sales, which consist of sales of products generated through websites and mobile applications, represented 15.56% of net sales during the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 and increased by 10.91% compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024~~, which includes the benefit of the seasonal timing shift~~. Calculated on a comparable week basis relative to fiscal 2024, online sales increased by 811.35%.

A stronger U.S. dollar compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024 negatively impacted net sales by $~~275~~163 million during the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025.

Comparable Sales. Comparable sales is a measure that highlights the performance of our existing locations and websites by measuring the change in net sales for a period over the comparable prior period of equivalent length. Comparable sales includes sales at ~~all~~ locations, physical and online, open greater than 52 weeks (including remodels and relocations) and excludes closed stores. ~~Retail stores become comparable on the Monday following their 52nd week of operation.~~ Acquisitions are typically included in comparable sales after they have been owned for more than 52 weeks. Fiscal 2025 includes 52 weeks and fiscal 2024 included 53 weeks. For our calculation of comparable sales in fiscal 2025, we will compare weeks 1 through 52 in fiscal 2025 against weeks 2 through 53 in fiscal 2024. Comparable sales is intended only as supplemental information and is not a substitute for net sales presented in accordance with GAAP. The method of calculating comparable sales varies across the retail industry. As a result, our method of calculating comparable sales may not be the same as similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Total comparable sales for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 ~~decreased~~increased 01.30%, primarily reflecting a 01.54% ~~decrease~~increase in comparable ~~customer~~average ~~transactions~~ticket and a ~~flat~~0.4% decrease in comparable ~~average~~customer ~~ticket~~transactions compared to the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. Foreign exchange rates negatively impacted comparable sales by approximately 7040 basis points for the quarter. Our comparable sales ~~performance~~results ~~continues~~reflect tobroader ~~reflect~~customer engagement with smaller home improvement projects, which was offset by the continued impact of macroeconomic uncertainties and other macroeconomic factors, including a persisting high interest rate environment pressuring large home improvement project demand.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 increased 84.39% to $1315.51 billion from $1214.4 billion for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales, or gross profit margin, was 33.84% for both the ~~first~~second ~~quarter~~quarters of fiscal 2025 ~~compared~~and to2024, ~~34.1%~~and ~~for~~reflects ~~the~~benefits ~~first~~from ~~quarter~~shrink ofand ~~fiscal~~supply ~~2024.~~chain ~~The~~efficiencies ~~decrease~~within our Primary segment in ~~gross~~the ~~profit~~second ~~margin~~quarter ~~primarily~~of ~~reflects~~fiscal 2025, offset by the inclusion of SRS in our consolidated results, ~~partially~~for ~~offset~~the byfull ~~lower~~second ~~shrink~~quarter ~~and~~of ~~supply~~fiscal ~~chain productivity within our Primary segment~~2025.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses are composed of SG&A and depreciation and amortization.

Selling, General & Administrative. SG&A for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $~~863~~620 million, or 128.97%, to $7.58 billion from $6.7.1 billion for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 1817.91% for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to 1816.35% for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily reflecting the impact of ~~a non-recurring legal-related benefit recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 as well as~~ higher payroll and related costs in the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 within our Primary segment.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $~~109~~68 million, or ~~15.~~9.2%, to $~~796~~806 million from $~~687~~738 million for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. As a percentage of net sales, depreciation and amortization was 21.08% for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to 1.97% for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily reflecting increased intangible asset amortization expense related to SRS.

Interest and Other, net

Interest and other, net for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 increased $~~163~~61 million, or 3812.15%, to $~~591~~550 million from $~~428~~489 million for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. As a percentage of net sales, interest and other, net was 1.52% for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to 1.21% for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily reflecting higher long-term debt balances and lower interest ~~expense~~income ~~driven~~in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, partially offset by ~~higher~~lower ~~long-term~~commercial ~~debt~~paper borrowings during the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our combined effective income tax rate was 24.42% for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to 2224.65% for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. ~~The increase in our effective tax rate was driven by certain discrete tax benefits recognized during the first quarter of fiscal 2024.~~

Diluted Earnings per Share

Diluted earnings per share were $34.4558 for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to $34.6360 for the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal 2024. ~~The decrease in diluted earnings per share was primarily driven by lower net earnings during the first quarter of fiscal 2025.~~

Table of Contents

Net Sales. Net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2025 were $85.1 billion, an increase of 7.0% from $79.6 billion for the first six months of fiscal 2024. The increase in net sales for the first six months of fiscal 2025 was primarily driven by SRS, which was acquired on June 18, 2024, and contributed $4.4 billion of incremental net sales during the first six months of fiscal 2025. Net sales also increased due to the impact of a positive comparable sales environment and sales from new stores. Additionally, due to the 53rd week in fiscal 2024, the first six months of fiscal 2025 included one less week of winter and one additional week of summer, which further contributed to the increase in net sales in the first six months of fiscal 2025.

Online sales represented 15.6% of net sales during the first six months of fiscal 2025 and increased by 10.5% compared to the first six months of fiscal 2024. Calculated on a comparable week basis relative to fiscal 2024, online sales increased by 10.0%.

A stronger U.S. dollar compared to the first six months of fiscal 2024 negatively impacted net sales by $437 million during the first six months of fiscal 2025.

Comparable Sales. Total comparable sales for the first six months of fiscal 2025 increased 0.4%, reflecting a 0.7% increase in comparable average ticket and a 0.5% decrease in comparable customer transactions compared to the first six months of fiscal 2024. Foreign exchange rates negatively impacted comparable sales by approximately 55 basis points for the first six months of fiscal 2025. Our comparable sales results reflect broader customer engagement with smaller home improvement projects, which was offset by the impact of macroeconomic uncertainties and other macroeconomic factors, including a persisting high interest rate environment pressuring large home improvement project demand.

During the first six months of fiscal 2025, our Storage & Organization, Indoor Garden, Building Materials, Electrical, Outdoor Garden, Appliances, Plumbing, Bath, Hardware, and Kitchen & Blinds merchandising departments within our Primary segment posted positive comparable sales compared to the first six months of fiscal 2024.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the first six months of fiscal 2025 increased 6.5% to $28.6 billion from $26.8 billion for the first six months of fiscal 2024. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales, or gross profit margin, was 33.6% for the first six months of fiscal 2025 compared to 33.7% for the first six months of fiscal 2024. The decrease in gross profit margin during the first six months of fiscal 2025 reflects the inclusion of SRS in our consolidated results for the full first six months of fiscal 2025, partially offset by benefits from shrink and supply chain efficiencies within our Primary segment.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses are composed of SG&A and depreciation and amortization.

Selling, General & Administrative. SG&A for the first six months of fiscal 2025 increased $1.5 billion, or 10.7%, to $15.3 billion from $13.8 billion for the first six months of fiscal 2024. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A was 18.0% for the first six months of fiscal 2025 compared to 17.4% for the first six months of fiscal 2024, which primarily reflects higher payroll and related costs during the first six months of fiscal 2025 along with the impact of a non-recurring legal-related benefit recognized during the first six months of fiscal 2024 within our Primary segment.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization for the first six months of fiscal 2025 increased $177 million, or 12.4%, to $1.6 billion from $1.4 billion for the first six months of fiscal 2024. As a percentage of net sales, depreciation and amortization was 1.9% for the first six months of fiscal 2025 and 1.8% for the first six months of fiscal 2024, primarily reflecting increased intangible asset amortization expense related to SRS.

Interest and Other, net

Interest and other, net for the first six months of fiscal 2025 increased $224 million, or 24.4%, to $1.1 billion from $917 million for the first six months of fiscal 2024. As a percentage of net sales, interest and other, net was 1.3% for the first six months of fiscal 2025 compared to 1.2% for the first six months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to higher long-term debt balances and lower interest income in fiscal 2025, partially offset by lower commercial paper borrowings during fiscal 2025.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our combined effective income tax rate was 24.3% for the first six months of fiscal 2025 compared to 23.7% for the first six months of fiscal 2024. The increase in our effective tax rate was driven by certain discrete tax benefits recognized during the first six months of fiscal 2024.

Diluted Earnings per Share

Diluted earnings per share were $8.03 for the first six months of fiscal 2025, compared to $8.23 for the first six months of fiscal 2024. The decrease in diluted earnings per share was primarily driven by lower net earnings during the first six months of fiscal 2025.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

To provide clarity on our operating performance, we supplement our reporting with certain non-GAAP financial measures. However, this supplemental information should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures. Non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may differ from similar measures used by other companies.

Return on Invested Capital

We believe ROIC is meaningful for management, investors and ratings agencies because it measures how effectively we deploy our capital base. ROIC is a non-GAAP profitability measure, not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. We define ROIC as NOPAT, a non-GAAP financial measure, for the most recent twelve-month period, divided by average debt and equity. We define average debt and equity as the average of beginning and ending long-term debt (including current installments) and equity for the most recent twelve-month period.

The following table presents the calculation of ROIC, together with a reconciliation of NOPAT to net earnings (the most comparable GAAP financial measure):

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At ~~May~~August 43, 2025, we had $12.48 billion in cash and cash equivalents, of which $~~811~~1.1 ~~million~~billion was held by our foreign subsidiaries. We believe that our current cash position, cash flow generated from operations, funds available from our commercial paper program, and access to the long-term debt capital markets should be sufficient not only for our operating requirements, any required debt payments, and satisfaction of other contractual obligations, but also to enable us to invest in the business, fund dividend payments, and fund any share repurchases through the next several fiscal years. In addition, we believe that we have the ability to obtain alternative sources of financing, if necessary.

Fiscal Q1 2025 Form 10-Q 17

Table of Contents

Our material cash requirements include contractual and other obligations arising in the normal course of business. These obligations primarily include long-term debt and related interest payments, operating and finance lease obligations, and purchase obligations. In addition to our cash requirements, we follow a disciplined approach to capital allocation. This approach first prioritizes investing in the business, followed by paying dividends, with the intent of then returning excess cash to shareholders in the form of share repurchases. In March 2024, we paused share repurchases in connection with the acquisition of SRS and do not have plans to resume share repurchases in fiscal 2025.

~~During~~Fiscal ~~the~~Q2 ~~first three months of fiscal~~ 2025, weForm invested approximately $806 million back into our business in the form of capital expenditures. In line with our expectation of approximately 2.5% of fiscal 2025 net sales, we plan to invest approximately $4 billion back into our business in the form of capital expenditures in fiscal 2025. We expect to make these investments across initiatives to improve the customer experience, including through technology and development of other differentiated capabilities, to continue to mature and build out Pro customer capabilities, as well as to build new stores.

InTable ~~February 2025, we announced a 2.2% increase in our quarterly cash dividend from $2.25 to $2.30 per share. During the first three months~~ of fiscal 2025, we paid cash dividends of $2.3 billion to shareholders. We intend to pay a dividend in the future; however, any future dividend is subject to declaration by our Board of Directors based on our earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, and other factors considered relevant by our Board of Directors.Contents

During the first six months of fiscal 2025, we invested approximately $1.7 billion back into our business in the form of capital expenditures. In line with our expectation of approximately 2.5% of fiscal 2025 net sales, we plan to invest approximately $4 billion back into our business in the form of capital expenditures in fiscal 2025. We expect to make these investments across initiatives to improve the customer experience, including through technology and development of other differentiated capabilities, to continue to mature and build out Pro customer capabilities, as well as to build new stores. However, we may adjust our capital expenditures to support the operations of the business, to enhance long-term strategic positioning, or in response to the economic environment, as necessary or appropriate. We may also utilize strategic acquisitions to help accelerate our strategic initiatives.

In February 2025, we announced a 2.2% increase in our quarterly cash dividend from $2.25 to $2.30 per share. During the first six months of fiscal 2025, we paid cash dividends of $4.6 billion to shareholders. We intend to pay a dividend in the future; however, any future dividend is subject to declaration by our Board of Directors based on our earnings, capital requirements, financial condition, and other factors considered relevant by our Board of Directors.

In August 2023, our Board of Directors approved a $15.0 billion share repurchase authorization that replaced the previous authorization of $15.0 billion, which was approved in August 2022. The August 2023 authorization does not have a prescribed expiration date. As of August 3, 2025, approximately $11.7 billion of the $15.0 billion share repurchase authorization remained available.

DEBT

WeAt ~~have~~the beginning of fiscal 2025, we had a commercial paper program that ~~allows~~allowed for ~~borrowings~~an upaggregate toof $7.0 billion in borrowings, and iswas supported by $7.0 billion of back-up credit facilities. AtThese ~~the beginning of fiscal 2025, these~~ back-up credit facilities consisted of a five-year $3.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in July 2027, a 364-day $2.0 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in May 2025, and a 364-day $1.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in July 2025. On May 6, 2025, we terminated all three back-up credit facility agreements and simultaneously entered into a new five-year $3.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in May 2030 and a new 364-day $3.5 billion credit facility scheduled to expire in May 2026.

~~All~~In ~~of our short-term borrowings in the first three months of fiscal 2025 were under our commercial paper program, and the maximum amount outstanding at any time was $1.1 billion.

We also issue senior notes from time to time as part of our capital management strategy. We did not have any issuances of senior notes during the first six months of fiscal 2025. In April 2025, we repaid our $500 million 2.70% and $500 million 5.125% senior notes at maturity.

The indentures governing our senior notes do not generally limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness or require us to maintain financial ratios or specified levels of net worth or liquidity. The indentures governing our notes contain various customary covenants; however, none of the covenants are expected to impact our liquidity or capital resources. We were in compliance with all such covenants at August 3, 2025. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our debt arrangements.

CASH FLOWS SUMMARY

Operating Activities

Cash flow generated from operations provides us with a significant source of liquidity. Our operating cash flows result primarily from cash received from our customers, offset by cash payments we make for products and services, associate compensation, operations, occupancy costs, and income taxes. Cash provided by or used in operating activities is also subject to changes in working capital. Working capital at any point in time is subject to many variables, including seasonality, inventory management and category expansion, the timing of cash receipts and payments, vendor payment terms, and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

~~Fiscal~~Net Q1cash provided by operating activities decreased by $1.9 billion in the first six months of fiscal 2025 ~~Form~~compared ~~10-Q~~to 18the first six months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to changes in working capital. Changes in working capital were primarily driven by increased inventory levels during the first six months of fiscal 2025 along with the deferral of our fourth quarter fiscal 2024 estimated federal tax payment to the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Table of Contents

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $1.2 billion in the first three months of fiscal 2025 compared to the first three months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to changes in working capital. Changes in working capital were primarily driven by increased inventory levels during the first three months of fiscal 2025 along with the deferral of our fourth quarter fiscal 2024 estimated federal tax payment to the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities ~~increased~~decreased by $~~101~~17.2 ~~million~~billion in the first ~~three~~six months of fiscal 2025 compared to the first ~~three~~six months of fiscal 2024, primarily resulting from ~~immaterial~~cash ~~business~~paid ~~acquisitions~~to acquire SRS in fiscal ~~2025, partially offset by lower capital expenditures~~2024.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities in the first ~~three~~six months of fiscal 2025 primarily reflected $24.36 billion of cash dividends paid, $1.12 billion of repayments of long-term debt, and $~~278~~316 million of net repayments of commercial paper borrowings. Net cash ~~used~~provided inby financing activities in the first ~~three~~six months of fiscal 2024 primarily reflected $210.0 billion of net proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and $2.5 billion of proceeds from commercial paper borrowings, net of repayments, which were used to finance the SRS acquisition. This was partially offset by $4.5 billion of cash dividends paid, $1.23 billion of repayments of long-term debt ~~repayments~~, and $649 million of share repurchases prior to pausing share repurchases in March 2024.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

During the first ~~three~~six months of fiscal 2025, there were no changes to our critical accounting estimates or our significant accounting policies as disclosed in the 2024 Form 10-K. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

For information on accounting pronouncements that have impacted or may materially impact our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows, see Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Our exposure to market risk results primarily from fluctuations in interest rates in connection with our long-term debt portfolio. We are also exposed to risks from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of our foreign operations into U.S. dollars and on the purchase of goods by these foreign operations that are not denominated in their local currencies. Additionally, we may experience inflation and deflation related to our purchase and sale of certain commodity products. During the first ~~three~~six months of fiscal 2025, there have been no material changes to our market risks from those disclosed in the 2024 Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Under the direction and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~May~~August 43, 2025.

We are in the process of an ongoing business transformation initiative, which includes upgrading and migrating certain accounting and finance systems. We plan to continue to migrate additional business processes over the course of the next few years and have modified and will continue to modify the design and implementation of certain internal control processes as the transformation continues.

Except as described above, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended ~~May~~August 43, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

There were no material changes during the first ~~three~~six months of fiscal 2025 to our disclosure in Part I, Item 3. “Legal Proceedings” of our 2024 Form 10-K.

SEC regulations require us to disclose certain information about proceedings arising under federal, state or local environmental regulations if we reasonably believe that such proceedings may result in monetary sanctions above a stated threshold. Pursuant to SEC regulations, the Company uses a threshold of $1 million for purposes of determining whether disclosure of any such proceedings is required. Accordingly, below we have provided an update regarding the civil consent decree we entered into with the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”), and the states of Utah, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island in April 2021.

As previously reported, including in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the decree required certain changes to lead-safe work practices in our installation services business and provided for stipulated penalties for failure to perform by third-party installers. In the ~~first~~second quarter of fiscal ~~2023~~2025, ~~the EPA informed us that it believes~~ we ~~owe~~made ~~certain~~the ~~penalties~~final ~~for~~payment ~~violations by third-party installers~~ of ~~documentation requirements under the decree. We are discussing with the EPA the basis for the~~ stipulated penalties weowed ~~allegedly owe~~ under the decree, and ~~the~~we ~~aggregate~~are ~~amount~~now ofworking ~~any~~with ~~stipulated penalties owed for~~ the ~~42-month~~EPA ~~duration~~to ofterminate the decree. WeThe ~~expect the decree to be terminated thereafter. While we cannot predict the~~ aggregate amount of stipulated penalties wepaid ~~may ultimately owe~~ to the EPA under the decree, ~~such payments to date have~~ totaled approximately $1.57 million, and we ~~do not expect any such penalties to~~ have ~~a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Further, we have~~ collected fines from our third-party installers for the approximately $1.57 million paid ~~to date, and we expect to recoup any additional amount we ultimately owe from corresponding fines we levy against our third-party installers~~.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the ~~other~~ information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed under Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the 2024 Form 10-K. These risks and uncertainties could materially and adversely affect our business, consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Our operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or by factors that we currently do not consider material to our business. There have been no material changes in the risk factors discussed in the 2024 Form 10-K.
