What a store carries

A typical store stocks approximately 30,000 to 40,000 items during the year, national brands and proprietary products together, across appliances, bath, building materials, electrical, flooring, hardware, indoor garden, kitchen and blinds, lighting, lumber, millwork, outdoor garden, paint, plumbing, power, and storage and organisation. The websites act as an extended aisle with a wider assortment: homedepot.com is the main site, with homedepot.ca and homedepot.com.mx abroad, hdsupply.com for maintenance products, blinds.com, justblinds.com and americanblinds.com for window coverings, constructionresourcesusa.com for design-oriented surfaces and appliances, and thecompanystore.com for textiles and décor. The company has formed exclusive relationships with certain suppliers to sell under recognised brand names and to offer proprietary products comparable to national brands, which it says generally carry higher margins.

Two kinds of customer

Consumers, which the company splits into do-it-yourself and do-it-for-me buyers, and Pros, meaning professional tradespeople. Do-it-yourself customers are typically homeowners doing their own projects, helped by store associates, digital resources, clinics and workshops. Pros look for dedicated sales support, credit and pricing options, project planning tools, reliable deliveries, and depth of product in job-lot quantities for complex work. The stated strategy is to support associates so they can deliver the customer experience, to make the in-store and digital experience work as one, and to win with Pros.

SRS and GMS

In fiscal 2024 the company acquired SRS, a residential specialty trade distributor of roofing and complementary building products, landscape supplies and swimming pool supplies serving professional roofers, landscapers and pool contractors. In fiscal 2025 SRS acquired GMS, a distributor of specialty building products including drywall, ceilings and steel framing. At the end of fiscal 2025 SRS, including GMS, operated over 1,250 locations across the United States and Canada, most with a distribution centre, material handling and delivery equipment and inventory, and it is organised into four lines of business: roofing and building products, interior and construction products, landscape, and pool. Each is an operating segment but none is a reportable segment. Their websites are srsdistribution.com, heritagelandscapesupplygroup.com, heritagepoolsupplygroup.com and gms.com.

Digital and the stores

Most traffic to the digital channels comes from mobile devices. The company has invested in search, navigation, product content and checkout speed, and is applying AI tools to search, recommendations and chat, including Magic Apron for product and project questions and a Blueprint Takeoffs Tool and Material List Builder that generate project-specific materials lists and quotes. In stores, associates use web-enabled handheld hdPhone devices to check inventory, run customer service applications and locate products.

Competing and returning cash

The filing states that competition in store and online is primarily on customer experience, price, quality, product availability, assortment and innovation, and delivery options, along with store and branch location and appearance, presentation of merchandise and ease of shopping. In fiscal 2025 the company returned $9.2 billion to shareholders in cash dividends, after raising the quarterly dividend 2.2% from $2.25 to $2.30 a share in February 2025.

Read moreFree cash flow is operating cash flow less capital expenditure; the effective tax rate is income tax over pre-tax income; margins are the line over revenue. Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue, and operating income is revenue less the company's own total costs, where the statement does not print those lines. Those four are arithmetic on the filed numbers; everything else is as filed.
