Our note on each quarter The Home Depot files

Where Home Depot (The) stands after its latest 10-Q

Revenue for the twelve months to August 2026 was $169.2bn, up 2.5% on a year earlier, about the same pace as a quarter earlier. That puts it 752 of 931 for growth among all the companies we cover. Free-cash-flow margin held at 8.9%. Against its peers on growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet, it grades C. It passes 2 of our 3 financial-health checks. Our cash-flow model value is $223 a share, against a share price of $316. At that price, our model says the market is pricing in about 7.9% a year of cash-flow growth for five years, faster than the 2.3% a year revenue growth it has delivered.

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of The Home Depot's free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($17.4B, FY2027 Q2 TTM), growing 2.9% and 3% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 2.7% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$180–~$350 ; that spread sets a 25% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of The Home Depot's free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $17.4B, FY2027 Q2 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value The Home Depot as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 8.7%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.84 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Cash-flow model (DCF) Free cash flow to the firm (after stock pay, with after-tax interest added back), grown then faded to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5% as the firm rate, less debt and other claims. ~$250 ~$180–$350 Primary model, counts double
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$200 ~$140–$320 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: return on equity above 40%: buybacks or intangibles make book value too small an anchor

  • Cash conversion 15 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 10 of 10 years, at a median 9.4% of revenue.

  • Discipline 19 / 20

    The diluted share count fell 7.2% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 0.3% of revenue.

How our valuation uses these forecasts

Our cash-flow model grows The Home Depot's revenue by +2.9% next year and +3.0% the year after, then fades back toward its own record by year five. Next year's rate weighs analysts' consensus (+3.1%, weight 57%) , management guidance (+2.4%, weight 18%) and the company's own record (+2.7%, weight 24%) . How the weights are set.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How The Home Depot’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Implied vs realised volatility

Includes results

A results date falls inside these options’ life. Implied volatility is meant to be higher for that, so we do not call it rich.

  • Implied is 1.41× the last 60 days’ realised volatility .
  • Why: an earnings date falls inside the option's life, so implied volatility is expected to be high.

Our rule for “rich”: implied at least 1.2× 60-day realised (beyond measurement noise), above 1-year realised (not just a calm spell), and in the top 20% of our coverage that day. Never with results inside the option’s life. These are our conventions, built on research showing option prices usually imply more movement than follows, most when the gap is wide. How we judge this.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: rated Sell.

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

HD The Home Depot Grade B $340.12

Own 100 shares, sell the $360 call expiring December 4, 2026 (32 days) for $5.40 a share — $540 per contract.

Previous session · Bid $5.40, ask $6.50, quoted Mon 2 Nov, 17:25 New York time with HD at $340.12. Option prices move with the shares: check the live chain at your broker before trading.

  • If HD ends below $360: you keep your shares and the $540 — 1.6% extra on the position, 18.1% a year at that pace.
  • If it ends above $360: your shares are sold at $360, a total return of 7.4% including the premium — at or above our value of ~$250.

Results are expected around November 17, 2026, before this option expires: the share price can jump on results, and the premium partly reflects that.

Collar

Own the shares, buy the $320 put and sell the $365 call, both expiring November 27, 2026 (25 days).

  • Net cost of $1.20 a share ($120 per contract of 100 shares).
  • Worst case at expiry: -6.3%, if the shares fall below $320 (-5.9% from today).
  • Best case at expiry: +7.0%, if the shares rise above $365 (+7.3%); gains beyond that go to the call buyer.

Offered because the shares trade at or above our fair value of $250: a way to hold on with a floor under the price, paid for by giving up upside the model does not expect. Strikes near 25-delta; the put at its ask and the call at its bid. Protection has a cost over time: research on protective puts finds they have usually lowered returns.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.
