Home Depot Q1 FY2026: Sales Beat as Pro Segment and HVAC Expansion Drive Growth

Home Depot's first quarter showed accelerating growth and a confident management tone. Revenue of $41.8 billion grew 4.8% year-over-year with comps up 0.6%, edging past consensus on both EPS and revenue. The completed Mingledorff's acquisition adds HVAC parts distribution as a new growth vector, expanding the company's addressable market to $1.2 trillion. Management reaffirmed FY2026 guidance and disclosed a $400 million cross-sell run-rate target across SRS, GMS, and HD Supply, signaling that the Pro-focused ecosystem strategy is gaining traction. The stock responded with a 1.5% abnormal return on the report day and 8.3% subsequent drift higher, though comp growth remains modest and macro headwinds persist.

What changed

Management tone shifted from cautious in Q4 FY2025 to confident in Q1 FY2026. Revenue growth accelerated from 3.2% full-year FY2025 to 4.8% in Q1. Gross margin improved from 32.6% in Q4 to approximately 33.1% in Q1, though still reflecting GMS integration impact. The Mingledorff's HVAC distribution acquisition closed during the quarter, adding a new platform beyond traditional big-box retail. A $400 million cross-sell run-rate target across SRS, GMS, and HD Supply was disclosed for the first time. The exclusive Ram Board floor protection product was introduced to the big-box channel.

Guidance delta

FY2026 guidance was reaffirmed at 2.5%-4.5% total sales growth, flat-to-2% comparable sales, gross margin of approximately 33.1%, and operating margin of 12.4%-12.6%. This is unchanged from the initial FY2026 outlook issued with Q4 FY2025 results.

Key takeaways

  • Q1 sales grew 4.8% to $41.8B, beating consensus on both revenue and adjusted EPS ($3.43 vs. $3.41 estimate).
  • Mingledorff's HVAC distribution acquisition completed, expanding the addressable market to $1.2 trillion.
  • Pro segment outperformed DIY, supported by digital tools, trade credit expansion, and broader product assortment.
  • FY2026 guidance reaffirmed: 2.5%-4.5% sales growth, operating margin 12.4%-12.6%, gross margin approximately 33.1%.
  • Cross-sell run-rate target of $400M across SRS, GMS, and HD Supply disclosed for the first time.

Management priorities

  • Complete MET (Merchandise Execution Team) rollout to all stores by end of FY2026.
  • Scale the Pro Digital Workspace and AI-enabled material list builder.
  • Expand Trade Credit program to additional Pro segments in Q2.
  • Pursue modest additional HVAC acquisitions to broaden geographic coverage.
  • Open approximately 15 new Home Depot stores and 40-50 new SRS locations with capex at approximately 2.5% of sales.

Methodology

Reported and consensus figures come from FN2's earnings event records. Market reaction and volume are calculated from daily adjusted bars around the event; abnormal move subtracts the SPY move over the same window.

Analyst target low, average, and high values are derived at request time from each named analyst's latest persisted FMP target. The current-price marker comes from FN2's persisted market snapshot. They are sell-side estimates, not an FN2 valuation or recommendation.

Transcript intelligence is a structured synthesis of the current and prior earnings-call analyses. Missing values stay missing and are never estimated.
