About Best Buy
With over $41 billion in consolidated 2024 sales, Best Buy is the largest pure-play consumer electronics retailer in the US, boasting roughly 8% share of the North American market and around 33% share of offline sales in the region, per our calculations, CTA, and Euromonitor data. The firm generates the bulk of its sales in-store, with mobile phones and tablets, computers, and appliances representing its three largest categories. Recent investments in e-commerce fulfillment, accelerated by the covid pandemic, have seen the US e-commerce channel roughly double from prepandemic levels, with management estimating that it will represent a mid-30% proportion of sales moving forward.

What the Analysts think about Best Buy
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Best Buy stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
BBY topped Q2 expectations with adjusted EPS of $1.28 versus the $1.21 consensus and delivered a 1.6% rise in U.S. comparable-store sales alongside a 5.1% jump in online comps. (Reuters)
Online channel strength continues, as e-commerce comparable sales climbed 5.1% in the quarter, supporting management’s view that the digital mix—now roughly mid-30% of total sales—will remain elevated. (Reuters)
Heightened demand for AI-powered devices, including strong sell-through of the Nintendo Switch 2 launch for which Best Buy was a key partner, helped drive gadget sales momentum into the back-to-school season. (Reuters)
Best Buy maintained its fiscal 2026 comparable-sales guidance at a narrow range of a 1% decline to a 1% increase and its adjusted EPS forecast of $6.15-$6.30, reflecting ongoing tariff-related uncertainties that limit upside visibility. (Reuters)
Despite beating Q2 estimates, Best Buy’s shares fell 2% in premarket trading as investors were disappointed by the lack of an upward revision to full-year outlook, underscoring sensitivity to guidance rather than results. (Reuters)
Management noted that Best Buy has experienced three consecutive years of declining sales post-pandemic, with consumers increasingly price-conscious and timing purchases around major promotions, which may continue to pressure comparable-sales growth. (Reuters)
