Welcome to Giro's Podcast. Today, we're discussing "Lowe's Q2 2024: Pro Strength Amid DIY Weakness," analyzing Lowe's recent financial results.
Lowe's reported total sales of $23.6 billion for Q2 2024, with comparable sales down 5.1% year-over-year. Despite this overall decline, the company showed resilience in key areas. The Pro segment saw mid-single-digit growth, while online sales increased by 2.9%.
The DIY segment continues to face challenges, particularly in big-ticket discretionary projects. This weakness, which began in Q3 2023, has persisted. Lowe's higher concentration in DIY sales, about 75% of total sales, amplifies the impact on overall performance.
In contrast, the Pro business demonstrated strength, delivering mid-single-digit positive comparable sales in Q2. This success can be attributed to Lowe's Pro-focused initiatives, such as enhanced product selection and improved service models.
Online sales growth, while modest at 2.9%, outperformed the overall sales trend. This indicates that Lowe's digital transformation efforts are resonating with customers.
Looking ahead, Lowe's has updated its full-year 2024 guidance, expecting sales in the range of $82.7 billion to $83.2 billion, with comparable sales down 3.5% to 4%.
