Lowe's Stock Rises After Retailer Returns to Growth in Same-Store Sales -- WSJ

Dow Jones

Feb 26, 2025

By Denny Jacob

Lowe's stock gained, after the home-improvement retailer posted better-than-expected profit and said same-store sales rose for the first time in nearly two years.

Shares advanced about 4% ahead of the market open. Some key items:

-- Profit totaled $1.13 billion for the three months through January.

-- Stripping out some one-time items, earnings were $1.93 a share. That beat the $1.84 expected by analysts polled by FactSet.

-- Sales fell less than expected, to $18.55 billion, and comparable sales rose 0.2%.

"We remain confident in the long-term strength of the home improvement industry," said Marvin Ellison, the company's chief executive.

A day earlier, investors had also reacted positively to results from Home Depot.
