Popular home improvement retailer The Home Depot, Inc. (HD) posted its biggest revenue miss in over 20 years for the first quarter. The company posted a $37.26 billion revenue, down 4.2% year-over-year and lower than the $38.28 billion expected.
However, the remodeling industry tailwinds could favor this home improvement retailer. According to a Home Improvement Research Institute (HIRI) survey, homeowners are favoring cost-friendly home improvement projects, such as DIY, as homeowners’ intent to remodel remains strong.
