EPS was $3.82 vs $3.8 expected. Revenues were $37.2 mln vs $38.2 expected. The company cut its sales forecast for the full year amid a slowing/normalizing consumer but shares are now up 4% after the release, so some of this weakness was likely expected. On a forward basis, shares trade at 18X earnings which is on the lower end of the valuation range for the company for the last 10 years. There will likely still be another noisy quarter or two in the short-term for the company, but we wouldn't have much in the way of concerns with HD, taking a longer-term outlook.

Has owned shares in the past, but not at the moment.
Over 20% hurdle rate in order to buy.
Waiting for shares to fall before buying.
Excellent business model with great product line.
Good for long term investors.
Wonderful future, loves its model. Trades at a premium to the market and to LOW. Today, he'd choose LOW.
He just sold it because the housing environment doesn't look good and interest rates are creeping up. Plus, wage inflation.
A little concerned. Retail has benefit from selling higher-ticket items, but last quarter HD had fewer transitions. It beat only because of those higher-ticket sales. Overall, we're still seeing disinflation, but how much longer can the consumer remain resilient? Savings are down a lot from a year ago. Will there be some trade-down?
