What changed
Compared with the prior quarter, sales growth accelerated from 6.7% to 5.3% on a reported basis? No—this comparison is not like-for-like because the supplied prior-quarter analysis refers to Q1 and the current analysis refers to Q2. The clearer change is that management continued the refreshed-assortment strategy while adding AI partnerships, a Chief AI Officer and a higher full-year outlook.
Guidance delta
Management raised full-year expectations to approximately 5% sales growth and EPS of $9.90-$10.90, excluding tariff refunds.
Key takeaways
- Q2 sales grew 5.3%, with traffic up 3.6% and strong digital growth.
- Food, Fun101, Beauty and exclusive collaborations were highlighted as growth areas.
- AI partnerships and a new Chief AI Officer expand the company's personalization and agentic-commerce efforts.
Management priorities
- Execute category resets and improve home and apparel performance.
- Roll out Target Beauty Studio to more than 600 stores.
- Continue store remodels, new-store openings and AI-enabled personalization.

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.
