About Target

Target's start dates back to 1962, but now it is one of the largest discount retailers in the United States (where it derives all of its sales), operating just under 2,000 stores and generating over $106 billion in fiscal 2024 sales. The company offers a broad assortment of merchandise across categories including apparel and accessories (16% of fiscal 2024 revenue), beauty and household essentials (30%), food and beverage (23%), hardlines (15%), as well as home furnishings (16%). Target's model is anchored in its physical store base, which fulfills more than 97% of sales. Around 30% of sales are derived from its own private-label brands.

In Q2 2025, Target surpassed sales estimates by posting net sales of $25.21 billion and adjusted EPS of $2.05, while narrowing its comparable store sales decline to 1.9%, showing stronger operations and resilience. (Reuters)
Bigger discounts, including 10,000 new items under $20, eased store traffic declines from 2.4% to 1.3% and reduced the drop in spending per visit from 1.4% to 0.6%, showing successful promotions driving sales. (Reuters)
Target is considering a factory-direct shipping model to deliver goods straight from factories to customers' homes, aiming to cut supply chain costs and expand its low-cost product offerings, in line with digital retail trends. (Reuters)
First-quarter 2025 comparable same-store sales fell 3.8% year-over-year, a much sharper decline than the 1.08% drop analysts expected, highlighting ongoing weakness in discretionary categories. (Reuters)
Target lowered its annual sales forecast to a low-single-digit decline and reduced earnings guidance to $7.00–$9.00 per share, reflecting cost pressures from tariffs and weaker-than-expected consumer demand. (Reuters)
Target's shares have dropped 23% over the past five years, significantly lagging peers like Walmart and Costco, pointing to investor doubts about Target's ability to restore growth. (Reuters)
